this green life

Sustainability, being green, naturalist, whatever you want to call it- it's my passion and my life. It's not just about tree-huggin' or saving fuzzy animals, it's about balance and living within your means and needs. It's about caring for your neighbor and being respectful of resources. It's about so much more than granola.

Adams, W.M. (2006). "The Future of Sustainability: Re-thinking Environment and Development in the Twenty-first Century." Report of the IUCN Renowned Thinkers Meeting, 29–31 January 2006. Retrieved on: 2009-02-16.

this is a great diagram that helps explain what a lot of people refer to as the "Triple Bottom Line" or often coined, "People, Planet, Profit" in the business world.  I pref to say Equity (social), Economy, Environment. However you say it, as you can see in the diagram sustainability is where all of these things meet and are in balance. Doesn't that just make sense?

More to come on this later, I am sure.
